a wonderful world of alcohol and sometimes hockey ramblings....a great place to get drunk or fantisize about being drunk.

Out on the edge of the empty highway
Howling at the blood on the moon "...... well it's true, the faster we go, the rounder we get and strange strange occurrences in the desert...... sweater nite is taking on a different feel as we sail into the uncharted Waters of number 20....as most of you know, we were approached by the friends of MoMo ( Maureen Nolan) and asked to share the evening portion of PC'S with a benefit for Maureen as she battles cancer.... and of course we were eager to oblige..... so the tentative timeline has USA v Russia at 6:00 a.m. location to be determined....the Blueshirts dropping the puck at 2:00....a hot buffet served approx 3:30......Mac & Mike (aka Richie Havens)open the festival at 5:00.....the benefit kicks off at 6:00....a second set of music and raffles followed by a second round of the buffet..... somewhere in there I begin speaking Mandarin with a touch of swaheely, hopefully my disguise will keep the knife weilding ninjas away from my thumb..... we have geusts coming in from far and wide.... I'm cautiously optimistic that we ring up one for the ages...a night to remember... celebrating 2 decades of dominance in the 209..... this one will really be different, I'd be lying if I didn't admit to waking up with cold sweats from time to time....let's hope everything goes well... "A diesel Mack comes Rolling down my way.... I can't hit that border to soon"

just wonderin
how many of those brave women that jumped on the #metoo band wagon, went through their CD collection and threw out all the JZ, Eminem etc etc albumds that include reference to bitches and Ho's.....these "musicians" after all are responsible for shaping the mindset and core beliefs of the youngens that listen to their music.....nobody has a problem with that ? NAH....we'll just wear white roses on our Gucci gowns at the gRammys.....that's a powerful statement.....yikes.

No fishstix in Brooklyn
Their days are numbered....the Iceladies announced a disasterous plan that will almost certainly result in John Taveres leaving.....with the new Arena not scheduled to open until the fall of 2021 at the earliest ( they haven't received approval to break ground, nor have they secured financing ) and the Barclays aggressively pushing them out.....they announced a proposal to play a split season between the mosoleuim and the Barclays.....ouch.....kind like the KC/Omaha Kings before the promised land of Sacramento.

the continous demise of the nfl
in case you missed it.....a U.S. Veterans group applied to take out a full page ad in this years super bowl program....the ad displayed an honor guard with fill colors and a simple caption......#Pleasestand.....at the bottom of the ad was a request for donations to veterans support groups......the nfl said NO FUCKING WAY and rejected the ad...their reason ?? they did not want the super bowl program to become a platform for political statements......I swear to God that was their official response.......so in case you keeping score at home.....the Miscreant, Slobs and Thugs that play in this league can use the National Anthem and a national tv audience as their platform to disrespect this country and our Police Forces' , but a Group of Veterans cannot take out an AD in a program asking/urging the fans in attendance to do what their fucking parents should have already taught them.....STAND for the ANTHEM.....as the ratings continue to dive off a cliff, you really don't have to look too far to find a reason....#boycottthenfl

"it's a shadowy world
Skies are slippery grey "......you take a few days off to consume a few cases of beer and you miss a lot around here....the sweater Nite letter was sent out to the masses with great fanfare and was well received as always.....the only complaint came from Dano , he chastised my spelling and grammar.... asked me if I deliberately put mistakes in the letter.....oh well, you can't please everyone as Don McLean would say...... I'm anxiously awaiting the return to the mainland of my brother Steve....he was in Hawaii during the missile inbound panic.... I'm sure he will have some good stories......Our fearless Commander & Chief once again showed he has his finger on the pulse of the nation....he's not afraid to say what mist of us are thinking....the things we say to each other in the sanctuary of the Bar..... .Why are we taking in sooo many immigrants from these SHITHOLE Countries....and why can't we get more Norwegians..... Ronnie would be proud....... special shout out to one of my loyal readers.... Kathy Duffy is turning Hawaii FIVE Oh.... Happy Birthday Kathy.......we were very close to having Kim Jung Uns favorite band Moranbong play some of their hits at sweater Nite....you know...the popular ones... songs like “We Call Him Father,” an ode to the North Korean leader, and “My Country Is The Best!” The music group has been referred to as North Korea’s version of the Spice Girls, a peculiar mixture of Korean pop music and totalitarianism....as the daily caller described them....but sadly they will be performing at the Olympics along with the Army of Beauties Cheerleaders....... equally dissapoiting is the diminished likelihood that Little Rocker man will Nuke the opening ceremony, now that his spice girls will be there.....oh well, we can still dream........" Oh, Jokerman, you know what he wants..........
Oh, Jokerman, you don’t show any response. ( Dylan)

strangest Christmas Eve
1985...Diego Garcia....no comparison.....on a remote tropical island....first time in my life not being home on 76th street for Christmas.....Christmas season started out okay......we got a USO visit on or about December 15th....I worked nights at the airport....the dallas cowboy cheerleaders came in and we got yo drive them 3 miles downton to their rooms in the officers quarters...we had a few laughs..didn't feel like Christmas season tho........95 degrees and sunny.....half the island inhabitants caught flights back to the States for Christmas leave on or about December 21st....the place was a ghost town.....Mess Hall was empty......the "BAR" was half full and lifeless....no flights at the airport from the 22nd on, so we had no mail or work......we barbuqued on the Beach with bonfires on the 23rd....big party for all the unlucky ones who weren't approved for leave......on the 24th....the lone radio station on the island thought it would be funny to play "I'll be home for Christmas" for 24 straight hours......as many different versions as they could find.....over and over and over.....it was funny for about an hour.......turned depressing.....followed by anger and rage.......but we kept listening......I remember drinking Gin & Tonic like it was water , along with about 50 other guys and girls totally drownding their sorrows, as the Palm trees waved and warm ocean breezes flew.....we kept drinking, and Listening to that fucking song......over, and over and over....please have snow....shots, beers, more gin....and mistletoe.....at night came more bonfires....angrier ones......furniture and other items were tossed into the fires...and presents for the kids....as midnight approached , total despair set in.......we felt like total losers stuck on a deserted island as the rest of the world celebrated Christmas.....you can count on me......eventually passed out......woke up in the sand ......stumbled to the mess hall for coffee.....brutal hangover.......what's playing in the mess hall ? I'll be home for Christmas....IF ONLY IN MY DREAMS.

Snap out of it, baby
people are jealous of you....
They smile to your face, but behind your back they hiss"........... and just like that our dear friends have turned on us like never before.... financial aid must cease and desist....no hard feelings....you voted to condem the United States for recognizing Jerusalem as the Capitol of Isreal.... certainly you don't want to accept a handout from someone you condemned.... notable names that Nikki Haley wrote down yesterday (full list of 135 available online) Afghanistan, bangaladesh, Barbados, Brazil, Costa Rica, south Korea, Finland, Norway, France, Greece, Italy, Ireland,Japan, Germany, Netherlands, , turkey, and MOTHER ENGLAND.......we need to especially punish our NATO allies that voted against us when the time is right.....any American that visits or financially supports these countries should reconsider.... interesting that both CANADA & MEXICO refused to condem us....I geuss even our left leaning neighbors would rather be on our side if a fight breaks out...... shame on all the coward's that continue to bow down and try to appease Islam.....it didn't work with the Nazis, they still bombed you to smithereens....it won't work against the sand Jiggs either...you'll see...............
..What’s a sweetheart like you doin’ in a dump like this? ( Dylan)

You're a lost Sailor
You've been away too long at Sea ........... interesting tidbit about UFO'S and the Pentagon spending 20 million to search for/ study them....a Navy pilot testified of an encounter with a " wingless tic-tac shaped aircraft" off the coast of California in 2004.....he said it mirrored his fighter jets movements....and then accelerated and dissapeared into thin air......now I drank a lot whilst in the employ of the United States Navy ; and hopefully that fine tradition continues, but I never saw any UFO'S or Martians.....at least none that I remember..... but clearly this is proof that the MARS men are out there.... hopefully they are reading the blog..... speaking of Dano and the Pope....Francis called"Fake news" a sin.....but he said that little Dog in NJ with the hockey Blog is hysterical....thanks Pontiff.... right back at ya..... speaking of Drinking to excess... I sure could go for a cold one....." Now the shoreline beckons, hey there's a price for being free" ( Weir/Barlow)

20 to life
SWEATER NITE XX is slated for Saturday February 17th....at PC'S BAR & Grill....2:00 p.m. faceoff.
Stop the Madness
So a fella in Brooklyn shot an 80 year old deli clerk to death because the man charged him $2 for a pint of beeeeeer that the shooter thought should only cost a buck fifty..... seriously people... what the fuck has gone wrong with this planet ? Has Satan taken over ? Is this the end of Days ?? Two dollars for a fuckin can of beer ? The shooter should have also shot the store owner, the beer distributor, the people in the apartment above the deli, and anyone else involved in this highway robbery..... enough is enough.

Gimme back my bullets
Life is so strange when its changin', yes indeed .....
Well I've seen the hard times and the pressure's been on me .....
But I keep on workin' like the workin' man do .....
And I've got my act together, gonna walk all over you ( Ronnie Van Zandt)....... everybody's busy, so I'll save you some valuable time and just give ya the bullets that Ronnie's asking for.....if you are reading this in the 22nd century, well this is why we drank sooooo much in the waning days of 2017.....•lets start with Kap... the man behind the national anthem kneeling protest, the man who wore socks with police officers depicted as PIGS , was allowed to visit Rikers island , inspect conditions and give a speech to inmates.....•mayor comrade bill wilhelm Deblasio is exploring a plan for the city to sieze privately owned buildings through eminent domain and convert them to rent stabilized apartments or homeless shelters....•the mayor also supports a bill that would force Police to ask suspects if they wish to be searched and to record that on video.....•the President accused a female U.S. Senator of coming to his office soliciting donations and that she was willing to do anything to get them.....•sticking with Trump, ex Ranger Luc Robataille's wife claims that Trump made an aggressive pass at her in an elevator at MSG in the 90's, who didn't ?....•the #metoo sexual harassment movement has moved to the restaurant world and the NFL Network, marshal Faulk, Ike Taylor and Mario Battali have all been accused.....•Jay Z's baby mama sent a cease and desist letter to a small sunset park Brewery demanding they stop calling their latest batch " Bieryonce Pilsner".... scratch head, put another shot of whiskey in coffee.....•speaking of coffee, Comrade Bill is offering $15 gift cards to Dunkin donuts for criminals in NY court system to take a survey about the conditions of their visit to criminal court as a defendant.... questions ranged from "did you know where the water fountains were? " To "were you greeted nicely by the guards at the entrance ?"......... I think that's enough for now....and I didn't even get to page six of the Post or talk about Roy Moore.

farewell to college joys
we sail at the break of day.....and so the biggest day of the year has finally arrived.......The United States Naval Academy and the U.S. Military Academy of West Point meet on the gridiron in the city of brotherly love for the 118th time.......Navy Leads the series 60-50-7.....but no matter what the scoreboard says at the end of the day , AMERICA wins.......for my betting friends ....I urge and implore you to load up on the NAVY....I have watched both teams.....pay no attention to records.....Navy has 5 losses......3 to top 20 teams ( UCF, @Memphis, @ND).......another on the road to a very tough Houston squad the morning after Thanksgiving, and one clunker on the road at Temple with a QB still suffering from a concussion ( and it showed, the offense was never in sync)........Navy has one glaring weakness......Pass Defense......Army has played entire games without even attempting a pass.....I fully expect a 17 point win today for the Calamari Squids......Anthony Gargulio ( the Pride of Colts Neck High School) will not be stopped..........the weather is the only monkey wrench.....Abbey has been careless with the football at times this year.....the only way Navy does not dominate is if they turn the ball over too many times........as most of my readers know we are having a fundraiser for the game today in PC's Pub in Bayridge......raising $$ for the PAWS OF WAR....a non profit group that rescues dogs from kill shelters and trains them to be service dogs for Veterans in need....stop by if you can.......and Gooooooooooo Navy !

Keep on playing those mind games
FOREVER.......I know I have posted about this before, but on this anniversary of the murder of John Lennon, I can't help wondering what he would have written about the past 37 fuckin years....the highs and lows of his adopted New York City...all the craziness of the world.. .I didn't always agree with what he had to say, But I loved the way he said it......."Love is the answer.....and you know that.... for sure"

the neighborhood bully
"his enemies say , he's on their land"
let's be honest.....the Palestinians...if they really even exist.....do NOT want peace....they have been offered a homeland before, have been offered and given millions if not billions of dollars in aid....they don't care about their children , they do not want normal life and the pursuit of happiness....they are eerily similar to their African-American cousins.....they won't lift a finger to help themselves and yet still despise and revile anyone that does....they are more concerned or obsessed with the destruction of Isreal than they are with the formation of palastine....critics have warned that President Trumps' acknowledgement of Jerusalem as the Capital of isreal with hinder the peace process.....there is no peace process.....and there will never be peace because the arabs refuse to abandon their position that Isreal needs to be wiped off the map......its time for America to wash our hands and let nature take its course....not another ounce of energy on fake and fraudelent negotiations with animals.....move on.
'he took the crumbs of the world and turned it into wealth.....took sickness and disease and he turned it into health....he's the neighborhood bully ( Dylan)

Time rolls on, and the band plays on
And so this upside down world keeps spinning.....good guys don't just finish last , But they are seemingly punished for their character....the NY football Giants have slumped to Arguably their lowest point in franchise history....they have dragged they 2 time Super Bowl MVP quarterback through the mud, surrounded him with an anemic roster, and a lousy coach and somehow blamed him for a 2-9 start to the season.....and how did Eli respond ? Stoicly... Professional and Loyal to the team.....AS ALWAYS.....in this season of the boycott I had already decided to give up my season tickets, but this move hurts.....it reminds me of the dispicable treatment of Tom Seaver...the franchise...by the perennial embarrassment NY Mets.....as much as I love the Mets...a part of me still HATES them.....and now the Giants join that club...... what is done, can never be undone...... I won't forget this , and even after mcadope and Jerry Reese are kicked to the curb....the stinging reminder of the way two GREAT GIANTS....Coach Coughlin and Eli..we're treated will linger....when those smug c*cksuckers Mara and tisch pat each other on the back after a round of golf at Winged Foot, they should know that all their money can't buy them an ounce of the class that Eli displays on a daily basis......... you've got to overlook the madness cause the spirit is blind and the people seem to know what to do.( Jorma)

Tell me, tell me, tell me the answer
And so at the Genesis of our week of giving thanks comes news of the death of " no name Maddox" ( so it says on his birth certificate) at the age of 83......his biological father was a con man by the name of Colonel Scott although he was never in the Army.....his mother married soon after no names birth and he was then called Charlie and took his step dad's surname of Manson....in and out of juvenile homes from West Virginia to Nebraska by way of Indianapolis and then stints in state and federal prisons ; he ultimately found himself in the deserts of California in the mid 1960's ....an aspiring singer and songwriter......he befriended Brian Wilson of the Beach Boys and moved into his house, along with his ever growing harem of young girls... through Wilson he met record producer Terry Melcher...and had a successful meeting at Melcher and girlfriend Candice Bergen and Melchers rented house at 10050 Cielo drive..... Melcher agreed to produce Charlie's album and also film a documentary about the Manson Family commune...... shortly thereafter Charlie had a violent outburst in front of Melcher and Wilson at the Spahn Ranch and both men attempted to sever ties.....the album and movie were cxld.....on the night of August 9th 1969 Tex Watson,along with Susan Atkins, Linda Kasabian and Patricia (don't Call me Maggie) Krenwinkel visited 10050 Cielo drive at Charlie's request and murdered everyone inside.... unfortunately for Sharon Tate.... Melcher and Bergen moved out and she had moved in...... most accounts point to Charlie knowing that Melcher had moved out and that the attacks we're meant as a threat or warning that Melcher was next... although some still argue that he was in fact the intended target.... Charlie took a shit load of LSD for many years and felt that the Beatles we're sending him subliminal messages through their music about upcoming race wars.... imagine someone taking LSD and listening to the same band over and over and over? Lol.....if I were to be buried (I which I won't, cremation for me but) I could put that on my fucking gravestone......... YOU may be a Lover , But you ain't no Dancer.... lookout now.

Never robbed any churches
Or cut off any babies heads.....he just took the folks in high places, and shined a light in their beds ( Dylan)........ that interesting Dylan lyric was about Lenny Bruce....the original bad boy comedian who faced public vulgarity charges in the early 60's.....Dylan, Ginsberg,Mailer etc all came to his defense......he's long gone, but surprisingly back in the news.....Brandeis University recently reversed course and decided not to allow a new play based on Bruce to be performed at the school because it was written by a white male and they felt it mocked the political correctness movement in general and the left censhorship of conservative voices specifically.....no shit... even I can't make this up....so Lenny Bruce who was known for telling the truth...no matter how brutal...is deemed to controversial to the student left..the student activist said of the award winning playwright Michael Weller...." As a white male, it's not his place to stir the pot "......."Lenny Bruce is dead... he was the Brother that you never had"....Nobel prize winning lyrics.
